This repository provides a backend for Spectra objects that represents and retrieves mass spectrometry (MS) data directly from data sets deposited at the public MassIVE repository. Mass spectrometry data files of a data set are downloaded and cached locally using the BiocFileCache package to avoid repeated download.
The package can be installed with
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("MsBackendMassIVE")Contributions are highly welcome and should follow the contribution guidelines. Also, please check the coding style guidelines in the RforMassSpectrometry vignette.
